Lost something on public transport?

How to track down an item left on a bus, train, tram, or taxi by contacting the right transport operator.

Items left on buses, trains, trams, and taxis around Brighton are usually handed in to the operator's lost property team — the trick is contacting the right one quickly.

  1. Identify the operator. Note the route, line, or company and the rough time. Each operator runs its own lost property process.
  2. Submit a lost property report. Use the operator's online form or phone line as soon as possible; recovered items are logged against your description.
  3. For taxis and rideshare, contact the driver or company directly through your booking or app receipt.
  4. Keep your reference. Save any report number so you can chase it up.
  5. Post a listing. Add a listing for Brighton in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Organizers missing in Brighton

Yesterday at about 4:30 p.m., I was packing up after a small craft session in Brighton and realized my bag of organizers had vanished. I’d left a tote on a bench near the Royal Pavilion, with a clear view of the seafront, while I tidied the area. When I came back, the bag and its contents were gone. Those organizers are essential for my volunteer project, and the moment feels personal—like I’ve slipped up and let the team down. The seafront and Brighton Pier keep popping into my mind; I hope they turn up somewhere along that stretch.

Book titled 'Wild and Domestic' missing near Brighton

I was strolling along the Brighton seafront around 9:00 p.m. last Friday when I realized my field guide 'Wild and Domestic' wasn't in my bag. It's a slim blue-bound book with a fox motif on the cover, full of notes and quick sketches about wildlife and domestic animals I use for study sessions by Brighton Pier. Losing it felt like a small personal loss—the pages are dog-eared and stained with salt from the sea air, and the margins are full of doodles from last summer. If anyone comes across it in the Royal Pavilion Gardens area or near the pier, please keep it safe until I can reclaim it.

Lost Holiday Decorations in Brighton

I was decorating my flat near the Brighton Pier on Friday at 7:15 PM when I realized my holiday decorations were missing. The box had strings of warm white lights, a six-foot garland, and a few handmade ornaments I treasure. I can picture them glowing softly in the streetlight as I approached the front door, and a wave of panic mixed with disappointment washed over me. If anyone spotted a box or decorations near the Royal Pavilion Gardens or along Madeira Drive, please help me bring them home.

lost: Photographs near Brighton Palace Pier

I lost a small stack of photographs on Tuesday around 7:45 p.m. while strolling along the Brighton seafront near the Pavilion. They’re a mix of black-and-white prints and a few colour snaps from a trip to the South Downs, memories of my late grandmother. They were tucked into a faded album that I carried in my bag. They hold a lot of sentimental value, and I’m hoping they didn’t blow away into the windy sea air. If you picked up a small packet of old photos by the Brighton seafront, perhaps near the Palace Pier or North Laine, please tell me via the site so I can start to fix these memories.
